I've been lurking this place for quite a few days now and I realized that this place is heavily censored beyond my comfort zone. It's perfectly fine. Just not for me. Goodbye. I won't miss you just like you won't me.

Hopefuly it won't need bunch of mods to have enjoyable gameplay anymore. Default traffic was terrible and mods were the driving force of the gameplay improvements.

I'm fully aware of that. I think my country wouldn't even exist if it weren't for, for example, the fertilizer made by notorious Nazi scientist whose name I cannot remember. I'm just saying that we should be aware of it.

How is this cherry picking...? Literally every paragraph you wrote can be boiled down to that.

I am not finding a clean hand. I realize that there are truckload of messed up problems in this world to be addressed first. I am definitely not trying to die on this hill that honestly, I didn't even thought it was one in the first place. I was just saying that it's something we might want to know before we make a decision of using this.

And I don't have political disagreement. How is human rights concern in Xinjian concentration camp an informed-by-my-own-bias outrage?

I never, ever want to have a political discussion on the internet(especially US politics. I'm Asian myself). I'm just saying that I definitely have some concerns about dev. Remember when Vue.js developer Evan You posted a tweet that basically condemned HK protesters? I'm an avid advocate of free speech but people can express concerns. You saying that do something that actually matters is just a classic case of whataboutism and your original comment is a longer version of it.

Just so you know, I sincerely appreciate for your contribution to this amazing community. I only have some concerns about quite the serious problem that Lemmy dev explicitly supported.

I sincerely believe this but then again I would not want to use any tools developed by nazi freak at the same time. Huge difference, I know. Just saying that the CCP definitely has major human rights issues and lemmy dev seems to be in favor of them...

I don't think forking is the right option either. It's just that we should be aware of that. That's all..for now.

Lemmy seems to be doing pretty well so far. I don't expect nor want lemmy&fediverse to completely dominate world of social network. That would only make spam/bot worse imo. I want it iust enough for me to enjoy.

I'm not sure about the longevity but a lot of people use discord as CDN apparently. There's even an API for that.

Kbin = Reddit + little bit of Twitter

DuckDuckGo 99% of the time, ~~Google~~ Startpage if I'm having trouble finding something.

*Note: Startpage uses Google as their source of search result.

It's not crashing. It's just more than 7-80% of the requests getting request error because most of the subreddits went private. It sure does looks like crash to a completely uninformed users but it's not a crash as we think.

Yep. I just don't care anymore. I have all the community I possibly need right here. I can miss some niche communities but this is all I need for the time being.
